Falcon program takes off: "“Will you commit part of your waking hours to a creature who at the very best of times will merely tolerate your presence, is as affectionate as a stone, and at the worst of times will cause you heartache and puncture wounds?
“Could you commit to an average of a half-hour a day, every day, and two to four hours on a hunting day, regardless of school, family, or job—forever?”
There are comparatively few falconers around these days, considering that falconry is one of the world’s oldest sports."
